Protein-drug binding

Proteins are bio-macromolecules made up from the long chains amino acid residues called the building blocks. Proteins are essential parts of organisms and performs various functions varying from DNA replication to transporting molecules from one position to another within every cells in organism. Proteins differ from one another depending on their number and sequence of the amino acids, resulting into protein folding which eventually determines its activity in the body. The amino acid residues are bonded together by peptide bonds adjacent to each other. Amino acids are classified into essential amino acids-which cannot be produced by the body and non- essential amino acids-which can be produced by the body. The study of disease related proteins are one of the most important and laborious research tasks in biophysical chemistry. The main objective of biophysical studies includes understanding the molecular forces involved in the binding that control biological interactions between the target and the ligand and to use this information in the long run to find useful modulators of disease. The interactions of protein are diverse and the functions of the proteins are rationally manipulated by modifying, stabilizing and inhibiting through a wide range of classes of molecules. A diverse range of molecules, small molecules, peptides and natural products can modify the protein interactions by modifying the protein, the interacting ligand or both.
